I'm looking at a nice Western saddle for trail riding. It's a Billy Mealor Saddle. Has anyone ever heard of them? What's your opinion?
Thanks

Never heard a bad word against them, I know they are fairly rare. They were all handmade and then the old boy retired a while back so there aren't any more being made.

I have never heard of them I only trail ride and ride 6 days ago and go camping once a month and on those days am in the saddle 8 hours at a time. I own a Tucker Trail Saddle and have had it for 5 yrs and not a single problem. The comfort is amazing and the quality is top notch. I would recommend Tuckers to anyone

I ended up buying three Billy Mealor Saddles for my three horses. Southern you are right, they are well made for sure.
I sold my Caldwell Saddle because it was wide enough for my horse but too wide for me to ride comfortably after several hours in the saddle.

You got any Billy Mealor saddles that you want to sell?
